Hello Ariel,

I haven't been completely following this discussion and I'm not sure if I'm responding to something which I think is something else, but I just want to say that I far prefer having each individual app (writer, calc, impress, etc.) show up in the Applications folder, each with its own icon and splashscreen.

FYI, such solution already exists.

=> I guess you have OpenOffice.org 2.3.app icon already installed somewhere, probably in /Applications (else download one, and mount the .dmg)

1) download the archive from here : http://ftp.cusoo.org/MacOSX/Utilities/separated_applications/official_iconset/
2) unzip it
3) put OpenOffice.org 2.3 folder into /Applications
4) In this folder, are all icons (ready to be docked )

=> put the OpenOffice.org 2.3.app icon ( after mounting the .dmg ) is the Office folder (inside)

Dock whatever icon ( Writer, Base .. etc)

...and use it   :-)

It's really annoying to have one OOo icon and then have to select which program to open after already opening OOo.

The correct solution is one application asking you the choice in case of empty document to be open.

One application ->  6 (or maybe more) possibilities

Here, provide 6 icons launching all the same application is imho a design mistake, but can be prefered.

And if the user ask for it, then, we can provide a solution  :-)


Maybe both methods could be worked in.

No idea of the feasability. I know discussion about the design started sometimes ago, but no feedback yet.


Regards,
Eric Bachard
